Retrieve path from File Name

Hello,
I have a string that contains a full FileName; i.e., The path and the file name.
How can I get just the path out of that string?
I tried "File(FileName.path)" but it returned something like "0000 temp"
Seemingly, that only works on a file object, and not on a string.
I wanted to do something through find/replace within the string... but I dont know about it.
In other languages I would do a reverse search on a forward slash - which would find the last slash in the string
and I would erase everything after that.
If anyone can help me with this, I will greatly appreciate it!
Thanks,
Davey

Assume a string variable s; then
myPath = Folder(s).path;
(if the string s is a legal path) will give you the path associated with s's the full path.

Get path and file name from Bfile

Hi,
I'm using Bfile to store images in a database. Is there a way to get the path and file name of the image from Bfile, because I need to pass that information into an image processing function.
Many thanks.
Sheldon

Can you use FILEISOPEN in the DBMS_LOB package?

File type from file name

Hi,
Is there any standard method to get a file type from file name?
File name can be C:\test.doc or C:\test(test is file) i.e. with or without file type extension.
...Naddy

You can use the Function module PC_SPLIT_COMPLETE_FILENAME
export paramter extension will tell the type of file
Sample Output
Import     COMPLETE_FILENAME     C:\TEST.TXT
Import     CHECK_DOS_FORMAT
Export     DRIVE     C
Export     EXTENSION     TXT
Export     NAME     TEST
Export     NAME_WITH_EXT     TEST.TXT
Export     PATH     \

Hi,
In SharePoint 2013, we can take use of REST API or Client Object Model to access the SharePoint objects like Form Library.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj193041(v=office.15).aspx
With the retrieved file, we can then use XmlDocument object to parse it and get the values you want:

Max length of VI file paths and file names

Hi,
Is there a maximum allowed length of VI file paths and file names in LabVIEW? I'm running LV 6.0.2i on NT and is trying to save a VI inside a LLB and LabVIEW crashes each time. I have also tried to copy the VI from the LLB to a temp folder with the Librarian VI, but LabVIEW crashes as well. The total length of the file path is around 260 characters and I strongly suspect the file path length in combination with LLB because when I use a shorter path the problem disappear. If I use a long path without LLB (just regular VIs) a warning appear "Invalid file name" instead of LabVIEW crashing.
Does anybody know the solution to this problem or must I use shorter filepaths? Perhaps it depends on which platform I am running
LV on?
Sincerely,
Mattias Ericsson

I believe windows has a 255 character pathname (file+path) limit. We once
had that problem because we had a long filename and a longer pathname.
Moved the directory up a couple levels and problem solved.

Path and file name

I am running Illustrator CS4 on Windows XP.
I have obtained a script that inserts the file name in the bottom left of the page
// CODE BEGIN
var pointTextRef = app.activeDocument.textFrames.add();
pointTextRef.contents = app.activeDocument.name;
pointTextRef.top = 20;
pointTextRef.left = 10;
// CODE END
What I would like is that it inserts the path name as well ie
"c:\temp\file.ai"
rather than just the file name "file.ai"
Is there anyone out there who can help me.
Thank You

Hi Mark,
Thank you for this script.
It works fine, just as I wanted.
Much appreciated.

path and file name
I think you want is 'fullName'
var docRef = app.activeDocument
var pointTextRef = docRef.textFrames.add();
pointTextRef.contents = docRef.name + ' ' + docRef.fullName;
pointTextRef.top = 20;
pointTextRef.left = 10;

Path and File name of the attachment

Hello Srm Guys,
Where should be the Path and File name of the attachment are stored for a shopping card Item.
Thanks
Ram

Hello Ram,
Execute the function module BBP_PROCDOC_ITEM_GETDETAIL by providing the item guid,object type . Now it will populate the et_attach importing parameter with the attatchement details.
In the ET_ATTATCH internal table , the field PHIO_FNAME/PHIO_PATH_FILE provides the physical storage location of the document.
Hope this info will be helpful.

Need help with EXS24 "read velocity range from file name"

I am trying to import 127 drum samples to a single key using the option shown here. The option says "Map to key dropped on and read velocity range from file name". I can find no documentation in the manuals on how to do this. What is the syntax required in the file name to make this work? I need to do several of these imports. The capability is cleary there, but I need help on how the file name should be formatted. My thanks to anyone who can help.

Not a direct answer to your question, but if you are doing a lot of sample mapping etc, you may want to check out Redmatica's KeyMap Pro or the simpler Keymap 1:

EXS24 read root key from file name only

Has anyone encountered this with EXS24 in Logic 7? If you set preferences to "read root key from file name only" then EXS reads the root key from the file itself when loading samples. On the other hand if you set them to "read root key from file only" then it reads the root key from the file name. Or am I just imagining this?
P.S. if anyone from Apple is reading, could you please update EXS24? It's a bit primitive by today's standards.

Cloud does not disappear from file name?

why does it take "forever" for the cloud to disappear from file name?
I saved a numbers document to the cloud a half an hour ago, and the cloud is still there.

HDash-Tech,
thanks for the tip, but since I have my iTunes Library on a NAS I have to direct iTunes every now and than via "choose library" to the folder and it doesn't make a difference...
I think it's somehow due to my iTunes Match. I know they do not sync audiobooks, but they mess up pretty much everything else within my library. Songnames here and there and especially cd covers!
Any other idea how to get it straigten out again?
Thank,
Daniel

Batch document title from file name?

Forgive the newb question on a fairly simple matter.
I want to create File Info: Document Titles from file names, minus the extension, for about 400 images.
Is this possible with Batch rename, if so what am I missing?
Thanks,

I am unclear how a batch rename will enter data into File Info: Document Title.
I have never used them but you might look at metadata templates. Several sites on web on how to set them up and what they will do for you.

B2B identifying TP from file name and not Interchange

We want B2B to identify trading partner from ISA/GS segment, but B2B is taking it from file name. We have property oracle.tip.adapter.b2b.edi.identifyFromTP set to "Interchange". As I understand based on the tip.property it should always take from the ISA/GS segment in dat file.
We also have Trading Partner Identification Type set to EDI Interchange ID while setting up trading partner and it is set to the same value as Interchange Receiver Id in the Document Protocol.
Anyone has any ideas?
Thanks

Hello Venkat,
ideally this should work. Guess you have not restarted b2b after changing the tip.properties. If you still have issues, please raise an SR and also send the b2b.log in DEBUG mode.

Can any one suggest if its possible.
Thank You
